News & Reviews

MADS committee member, Raymond Rudolph is producing & starring in a one-man comedy, My Dog's Got No Nose, by British playwright, Ron Aldridge.Directed by our own Celia Musikanth, it is a journey around a stand-up comedian's first ever public performance - his lifelong dream covers everything from comedy, unrequited love, dogs, the facts of life and more, but in a funny, bitter-sweet story, we discover that the man and his "performance" are not quite what they seem.Hilarious, provocative & poignant, with dramatic twists in the tale, the show is on in the Library Hall, Hill Street, Grahamstown from 27 June to 5 July 2013.

David last appeared at the National Arts Festival as ‘James Jarvis’ in “Cry, the Beloved country”.

“The show has the ability to touch one’s funny bone and heart strings simultaneously.”

Below My Feet

Following a very successful opening at the Masque Theatre, the cast of Below My Feet will delight Festival goers with this emotive collaboration of Movement (Contemporary, Modern, Tap, lyrical hip-hop), Music (for the head, heart and feet), and Media (Stills and live footage in the form of a full short film).This piece has evolved after the past three seasons and so has the cast. The original concept of how beneficial working through a process can be remains the same. This year (2013) “Below My Feet” was invited to open the opening ceremony of the National Schools Festival at the Artscape in the Western Cape. Performances this year include venues such as the Masque Theatre and The Kalk Bay Theatre, in Cape Town.
